Sharon Kenyon

A bit about me

I had 10 years call centre and customer service experience working for an airline and a telecommunications provider before I joined First in 2006! At First I’ve enjoyed 12 years recruiting across various departments including mechanical, piping, civil and structural.

As well as being the Training Manager, sharing my 12 years of recruitment knowledge with new starters, trainees and existing staff, my main role is find and match candidates and clients for roles across the UK in numerous sectors.

"I've been dealing with Sharon since I joined Simon Carves in 2011. I've always found Sharon to be very insightful and proactive in terms of our recruitment needs. She's always available to provide key and accurate market information. Candidates that are submitted via Sharon are always on brief and are well prepared in terms of our culture and interview preparation. Sharon has since took over the management of our account in November 2012 as a main point of contact and has been a pleasure to deal with and we've built a great rapport. For any further details please feel free to message me."
